I thought the “18” was a typo, but the Royal Navy really did put the heaviest gun they ever fielded on a carrier.

They’re saying ballistic missiles, not cruise missiles though. Those are too fast and too vertical to be intercepted with aircraft.
No, that’s brilliantly executed!
Mmm, high tea… Haven’t played that in a while.
It’s called a job. You demoncrats wouldn’t know anything about that.

I understand the saliva has a benefit for mosquitoes, but not the swelling and the itching (the “unpleasantness” in the title). In essence, our bodies hung this not-otherwise-useful allergic response on something the mosquitoes couldn’t/wouldn’t/didn’t give up and which was firmly specific to their bites, to single them out.
If there was no saliva our bodies would be pressured by natural selection to pick some other mechanism to make their bites unpleasant. An allergy to their chitin or a phobia to the sound of their wings, etc.
Evolutionary pressure from mosquitoes has probably been no small thing.
The image just loaded very slowly for me (i.e. after about 10 seconds). In some posts it never loads at all, but there is a thumbnail in the main screen. This is on sync.
Yes, that’s right. There’s a “no” at the beginning of the phrase which gives it that meaning (I misread it myself, so I see where you’re coming from).
TL;DR: “No 14 year old boy will stop following someone if they’re considered evil and bad, but they will stop if they’re considered cringe”.
It also propels itself forward by discharging high velocity watermarks.

This one is finally more sizeable.
It’s a special ethnic adjustment operation.
Her name is a nod to her Indian heritage on her mother’s side and in her 2019 memoir, Harris wrote that she pronounced it “Comma-la” and that it means “lotus flower.” […] Still, Trump continues to say “Kah-MAH-la.”
I was sure this was going to be the other way around. Strange and less bad than I expected. It’s mostly just an accent thing, not a change in sounds.
That’s awesome confirmation. It’s able to pull 50 W of power just off of one wire. The clamp mechanism is a bit big, but it can probably be left behind when it goes after a target.
The future is going to be scary.
When the war was obviously in the ‘last stand’ phase for the Imperial Japanese Navy, they sent their pride, the largest battleship in the world, Yamato, with just nine light escorts to run itself aground on the shore of Okinawa island and act as an unsinkable fortress there. Unfortunately it had to go past about eleven carriers with almost 400 aircraft and… it didn’t make it.
Yes, I imagine they’d use the Arrow 3, and the US Navy could probably help out with SM3s if they were instructed to intervene.
